After a severe accident or injury, working with an attorney is likely the last thing you want to do. We get it. Hiring a legal team and providing the required information, evidence, and paperwork can seem like another hassle to add to your worries. You may even consider filing your injury claim without an attorney. While this is legally possible, it comes with plenty of hoops to jump through and protocols to understand. The Injury Claim Timeline Before you or someone you know decides to take on their own personal injury case, it’s best to know all the steps first. After an accident, you need to move fairly quickly to file your claim. A rough timeline usually requires the following: 1. Calculate ALL the damage: To ensure you receive the proper compensation, you need to include all the damages caused by the accident, such as past and future medical bills, missed wages, emotional distress, property damage, and more.

As a parent, it can be incredibly challenging to nail down the perfect weeknight dinner menu that makes every hungry mouth in your home happy. This is especially true when you have picky little ones who demand waffles for dinner or dinosaur chicken nuggets seven nights a week. You may feel like your days as a short-order cook are endless, but we’re here to tell you about a simple trick to making healthier meals everyone in your family will enjoy. The trick is quite simple: Have your kids cook with you! Cooking with your kids has multiple benefits that stretch far beyond the kitchen table, but the immediate reward is that you won’t cook alone anymore! Next time dinner time rolls around, grab your little sous-chefs to lend a hand so they can enjoy these three benefits. No. 1: Cooking teaches life skills. It may seem far off, but one day, your child will have to cook for themselves and eventually their own children, too. By teaching them the basics of cooking now, you’re providing them with a skill they’ll need to be capable adults.
2. Determine who is responsible: You must identify who is actually responsible for the accident. This can be a person, a company, or another entity.
3. Collect the evidence: Proving your claim is one of the most critical parts of the process, and you need to have all the evidence at your disposal to justify it.
No. 2: Cooking creates an adventurous eater.
4. Write your demand letter: A demand letter includes all the information about the accident, injuries, treatment, and official request for compensation.
Imagine seeing something like asparagus or

artichoke on the plate in front of you for the first time and being told you must eat that weird-looking thing. That’s how many children experience food for the first time, which can feel like a scary experience.
Kids who help cook in the kitchen are much more likely to try new and adventurous foods because they’re exposed to them and other ingredients over a period of time. They touch, slice, smell, crush, and season the foods before they ever eat them. So, by the time it hits their plate, it’s not so scary!
No. 3: Cooking promotes healthy development.
Time spent in the kitchen isn’t all about eating, either. While cooking, children stir, mix, measure, roll, squeeze, spread, observe, learn, and count. These activities all help develop fine motor, hand-eye coordination, math, and science skills, not to mention creativity!
